Mamanguá is located in the District of Paraty – in the southeastern part of Rio de Janeiro state. It's the only tropical fjord on the Brazilian coast, a greenish sea coast entrance that extends for 8 Km to the most well-preserved mangrove of the Ilha Grande Bay. All this wonderful scenery is bordered by steep mountains occupied by Atlantic Rain Forest and inhabited by a traditional community of Caiçaras (fishermen, craftsmen and farmers) that still keeps their way of life, further enriching the conviviality in this tropical paradise.

To get to know this very special place, we offer some options:

You can choose to stay in our Refúgio Mamanguá Inn where you will be treated to a delicious breakfast and dinner, will have Canadian fiber canoes available for use,  and will receive a round-trip ferry transfers from Paraty Mirim Beach, all included in the daily rate.
